Why is Bhai Dooj on Fri 13 Nov in Ipameri?
Bhai Dooj is on Fri 13 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 17:15. Dwitiya: 17:15 to 18:17 Fri.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 14:14–16:49. Dwitiya: 17:15 Thu to 18:17.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−2). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The tilak is applied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dwitiya runs from 17:15 on Thu 12 Nov to 18:17 on Fri 13 Nov, so only Friday’s aparahna (14:14–16:49) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
